How good does the movie uniform look drawn up by Mr Flint. Fantastic!  :thumbsup:  Please Mighty One, print this in the Prog or the Meg.

MR. ELIMINATOR

Is it just me, or does anyone think the movie uniform actually looks better? They should start drawing Dredd like this. Or perhaps this could be a good way to avoid the problem of Dredd ageing in real time in the comics and start a flashback story told through old case files or something and it could just go on for as long as they wanted.

Mr EliminatorIt  looks better in the film but any drawings I've seen: naaah. Just look at how cool the predator looks in your own avatar andthen imagine the same pic with the more generic riot-cop thing going on.

Quote from: The Sherman Kid on 04 September, 2012, 12:22:28 PMWOW, YET another interview with a complete and utter blank of the director and high priase for Alex and Dodd Mantle. It must have been a massive fall-out.
Or Travis was a work-for-hire director, enabling the vision of the entire creative team. Remember this is often how movies were made in the past and is how some are still made today. The thing is, too many people bang on about the vision of directors as the most important thing in a movie, in part due to named directors being so prominent.

Perhaps there was a 'falling out', but there's nothing to say Travis didn't just get on with his job of directing, while Garland was also there to ensure the writer's vision (and that of Wagner) was maintained. Frankly, it's also nice to see a cinematographer getting props.

Exactly. Sounds like Travis knew he had a very talented team going and it's entirely possible he was quite happy to coordinate their efforts without getting in the way of how they did their jobs.

Dont know if anyones linked this- phone footage of the intro to the fan screening (ie Alex, Karl etc introducing- NOT the intro to the film). Couple of crowd sweeps (I can see me there).

So looking forward to my first Dredd 3D viewing this Thursday with another lined up for next week. I'm sure as a fan I'll get what my exceptations have hoped for. The proof is in the pudding though so lets see how the general public receive the film. I do yearn for it to be a good response so we get our sequel  :D

Diminished Responsibility

Pretty much every review is calling this a Scott Travis movie, that's the way movies are seen these days, as the directors baby. Dredd is definitely much more Alex Garlands, and the look hase more to do with the cinematographer than the director. I guess the lack of mentions for Travis in promotional material and interviews kind of counter balances this perception.
